No progress indicators for long-running operations

Priority: Medium
Component: cli.py, backup.py
Type: Feature

Description

Large backup operations can take hours, but there's no progress feedback showing:

Which file is currently being processed
How many files remain
Estimated time remaining
Current transfer speed

Problem

Users have no way to know:

If the backup is still running or hung
How long they need to wait
If performance is normal

Proposed Solution

Add progress indicators using tqdm or similar:

from tqdm import tqdm

# Show progress during rsync
for entry_relpath, action, msg in tqdm(rsync_func(...), desc="Backing up"):
    ...

Or implement custom progress logging:

Backing up: /home/user/documents
  Progress: 1234/5678 files (21.7%)
  Speed: 45.2 MB/s
  ETA: 5m 32s

Impact

Medium - Significantly improves user experience for large backups.
